Real player 12

Since Real Player issued an update to v. 12, I've had constant crashes with Firefox freezing. I can only restart and disable Real Player's video downloader, then everything is fine. Is there a fix anyone knows about?
I use XP SP3.
I reinstalled RP, which seemed to help a little, but there are still oddities, including the strip across the top (File, Edit, View) disappearing. Freezing or partial freezing tends to happen most often when a pop up box comes up or I click the download button to see my list of downloads. (not coincidentally.....exactly what extension real player installed)
Disabling the extension seems mostly to fix things.

The "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension has been causing problems in the past, so it is quite possible that there are problems with it in current Firefox versions.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
* Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
* Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • I have Real Player Plus and with it you are ment to be able to download videos with it from any site bit the download video icon does not appear despite having everything enabled what's going on?

    I have got Real Player Plus and one of the features of it is being able to download any video.
    Now to do that you mouse on thevideo and a download icon appears on the top right of the video.
    Recently it has stopped working. I have all my Real Player plug-ins enabled and the feature enabled on Real Player Plus to recognise FX 3.6.17 but it doesn't work. Whats going on? I am having to use Internet Explorer to use that feature of Real Player.

    Noticed some of the comments about the new Verizon tv guide. I concur with the crowd indicating displeasure with the guide. Lots of wasted space on the left side, top and bottom of the new guide. The original guide presented more channels and more times with each screen display. The original guide was quite useful for me, and functioned perfectly fine. I would like the opportunity to choose between the two guides. Change isn't always a good thing.

    Go to your actual realplayer (program), click the top right button (Realplayer with an downwards arrow) and update your software. Make sure Firefox is closed while you do this.

  • I have updated to Firefox 6 on OS Vista; since then I can't play YouTube videos, operate Skype or Real Player. How do I fix the problem successfully?

    YouTube videos seem to load for approximately a second before stopping... and then there is no progress at all. After upgrading to Firefox 6, I received a message saying that it is not compatible with Skype and Real Player (?) and that certain updates could therefore not be performed.
    With all due respect, what good is it to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox if popular applications like YouTube and Skype can't operate anymore? I desperately need to solve the problem - if there is no solution other than 'downgrading' to a previous version of Firefox, which version would that be?
    Thank you for your time and dedication in sourcing a solution in this regard.
    Regards
    ValleyMan

    Uninstall version 6, Google for a download site for version 5.1. Problem solved.

  • Does anyone know a video converter to convert Internet video recordings. Its in an IVR file, I can get it to work on real player on a widows but cant get it to work on my mac.

    Does anyone know a video converter for a video file for internet video recordings. IVR file. I can get it to work on real player on my windows but can not open it on my mac.

    Try downloading and using VLC. It is a very popular media player that plays just about every file format out there. That way you would not need to convert it.

  • I can't get the websites like youtube, facebook, etc to load. everything comes up as just text/words. i've downloaded adobe flash and real player on windows xp.

    i have windows xp. i just got the computer and internet on it. i downloaded adobe flash and real player. but i still can't get sites like facebook and youtube to work. i always get popups that ask if its a trusted site and to add the exception, which i do. yahoo and msn work, i can see photos and pictures and images just fine, but facebook and youtube are still all just words and error messages. any suggestions besides what i've already tried? i'm not tech savvy so step by step is how i learn best!

    Check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
    Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details" to expand this section.
    If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the <b>issuer of the certificate</b>.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

  • Real player downloader on mac os x 10.5.8

    Why I can't use my Real Player Downloader for MacBook 10.5.8, anyone please help me, thanks

    If you want to run Windows applications, you need to have Windows installed.
    As for Windows Media Player, try Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft).

  • Can't download real player file from link

    I'm new to the mac world and I am trying to download a real player file (.rm) from a link that is on one of my course websites (I've tried Safari and Firefox). When I "right click" and select "Download File" it just downloads the actual html link, not the file. I'm able to download the file on my PC with no problems. Am I just missing something with the mac?

    Are you running RealPlayer 11? That includes a downloader that tells you when a file is actually available for download.

  • I am trying to install Real Player onto my MacBook Pro

    Reason is toaccess RTE Lyric FM radio station. I have not had success. if anyone has had similar problems and can offer installation assistance i would appreciate it. thank you.

    The site makes it appear you can only use Windows Media Player or Real Player, but that's not entirely true as the stream isn't copy protected and they provide a download url to connect too with other players.
    http://www.rte.ie/radio/how_listen.html
    Download the free VLC media player here (donate if you can)
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
    Now look on this page
    See under the VLC player it says "play in stand alone player?"
    If you click that it will download a small file like you see at the top of the picture (it will be in the Downlaods folder)
    Now simply right click on that (after VLC is installed ) and open that file with VLC and the stream will play.
    Else open it from in VLC via the Network connection.
    Some other great free software for codecs you'll come across is
    Perian and Flip For Mac, install these two (along with VLC) and your 99% of audio/video needs will be taken care off.
    As long as the stream isn't copy protected you don't need Real Player or Windows Media Player, just a gimmick by that radio site. But deep down they want as many listeners as possible.

  • Real Player plugin in use - how to get rid of it?

    I tried to play something someone sent me, it required realaudio, I downloaded for free Real player for mac, it didn't do the job, so I tried to trash it, but I keep getting the message above. Anyone knows what to do?
    Max

    Hey there,
    Try logging out and in and then re-attempt to trash it or simply restart your Mac to kill any processes that are still using it. And again, re-attempt to trash the application. See if that helps.
    You may want to find a third party utility to "uninstall" the application and trash any files on your Mac that are associated with it. I would recommend [AppTrap|http://konstochvanligasaker.se/apptrap> or [AppZapper|http://www.appzapper.com> to help you accomplish this task.

  • How do I convert rmvb (Real Player) files to MPEG?

    Hi,
    I have a few .rmvb (Real Player) music video files I'd like to convert to MPEG so that I can watch them on my Apple TV. I've tried ffmpegX and HandBrake both both freeze when importing the rmvb files. Is there not a program that will convert these files?
    Thanks
    -Dean

    you might be screwed then.... realplayer files are usually quite hard to re-encode due to the closed nature of the files.

  • Mac Intel and Real Player - some info

    I've been grappling with the problem of getting Real Player to run on an iMac Intel for some weeks. I have now solved my problem so post my experience here in case it is helpful to anyone else.
    Only a few weeks ago Realplayer was not written to run on the Intel iMac. This was not obvious from the Real site (a sign that marketing people are in charge over there, all negative information is banned in case it creates a bad impression, never mind the cusotmers going mad trying to find out some basic and essential information).
    Well Real Player does now run on the iMac Intel. Again the Real website is useless for any serious information about the why's, when's and wherefore's of this, but it can now work, so I'll be happy with that.
    However when you install the Realplayer (I installed the free version, don't have experience with the paid for version, experience so far doesn't incline me to pay for it) it may not work straightaway. One apparent problem is that behind the scenes it seems to set your Audio output to a higher bit rate than is appropriate. This creats the apparent behaviour that Real player runs, and successfully streams, but no sound emanates.
    Here are the things I did at the end of which it worked.
    1. Find the Real Player application under Finder, click on it and select "Get info" (from Finder menu) and tick box to run under Rosetta. I am not sure if this is now necessary but I did it and it works, so I'm not undoing it.
    2. Open, then close GarageBand. This was recommended by other posters.
    3. This is what took me ages to get right.
    Go to Applications/Utilities
    Open Audio MIDI Setup
    It should open in the Audio Devices tab, if not, click on Audio Devices tab (top middle, left tab)
    In selection box marked "Properties For", select "Built In Audio"
    At this point the right hand pane should open with details of the built-in speakers for the iMac Intel. Note that if the right hand pane is empty or has a message about Output not being supported, this is because you need to select "Built In Audio" under the "Properties For" box.
    Makes sure that under the Format selection box you select "44100"
    Close Audio MIDI Setup and then run Real Player.
    Hope it helps someone.
    Or maybe I was the only one left struggling with this!

  • Problem with playing audio data using Real Player

    i've seen the intruction for playing video data (.rm) using real player and it works. Then i tried to play audio data (.wav, .dat, .mp3) with real player, but it didn't work.
    These are some codes i've wrote:

    then in the real player, i tried some urls :
    http://david:88/ramgen/dbaudio/1 --> it didn't work, it was said invalid path
    http://david:88/ramgen/dbaudio/2 ----> it didn't work, it was said invalid path
    http://david:88/ramgen/dbaudio/3 ----> it didn't work, it was said invalid path
    http://david:88/ramgen/dbaudio/4 ----> it worked
    did i put a wrong url?
    does the http://..../ramgen/... path is just for ram file?
    can anyone show me the way to play audio data using real player?
    Thanx before.

    Yes, realserver expects an exact mimetype.
    to make matters worse, it expects audio/x-pn-realaudio (an audio mimetype) for video!?!?!
    Seems the code inside maps multiple file extensions to some mime type. Only one is allowed.
    I have used the unix strings commands in teh plugins directory to find the exact mime type realserver is expecting. The file format plugins have this information in them.
